How to: Windsurf cisa cybersecurity mcp server cisa_search_ics_advisories

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:cisa_search_ics_advisories

Add cisa cybersecurity mcp server to Windsurf

  1. 01

    Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cisa-cybersecurity-mcp-server": {
      "serverUrl": "https://cisa-cybersecurity.caseyjhand.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

    Ask for something cisa_search_ics_advisories does. Windsurf lists the server's tools on connect and calls cisa_search_ics_advisories itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that cisa cybersecurity mcp server's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Global only — Windsurf has no per-project MCP config. Refresh Cascade after saving. Windsurf docs

cisa cybersecurity mcp server will not start until these are set, so cisa_search_ics_advisories never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
